Mine is hiding behind a submission form requiring a permanent address in their district in order to contact them.
Looks like I’ll just have to show up at their office to ask why they sent bombs to kill thousands of innocent women and children.
Jaded. Please, fuck off.

I wonder if a layer of Ripstop over the tiles would reduce performance. I could imagine fabric being a less expensive option than R&Ding more proprietary tech like making the tiles even smaller.
Edit: Glossed over the fact the tiles rotate. Nevermind me.
I could see them innovating with electromagnetic suspension, like with predictive magnetic suspensions in supercars. General Atomics has also been developing a rarely green-lit, high-speed maglev train for freight in California, so we may see proliferation of that tech if the project shows success.
Cool, can’t wait to get shot by one of these assholes next year.
Boof bro chugs beer out of a bong shoved up Thomas’ ass
I want to will this prediction into existence.

I’d hope no one would agree with my linked article, it was included specifically for it’s absurdity.
What is going on today isn’t about secularism vs Christianity. This is about group hate […]
While I don’t disagree with your sentiment, Christian denominations have played a historically definitive role in shaping the US’s government. Furthermore, a significant portion of US citizens want Christianity to influence government. A nice little cherry on top is that, since the Second Continental Congress in 1776, nearly every US president has opted to include the Christian bible and the phrase “so help me God” (both entirely optional) while being sworn into office.
In preface, I think everyone can believe in whatever they want. Religion is simply a habit of congregational reverence over some kind of object. There is nothing inherently wrong with this fact. However, being a staunch atheist myself, the continued antonymic assimilation of church-and-state within government is proliferating regressive politics. Personally stated, any Nat-C in government (i.e. MTG, Flynn) is a drivelling baboon that should be put on trial for willful ignorance. Unfounded opinion will continue to rend apart any pragmatic governance until all that’s left is Their One God. This dangerous downward slope needs to end for the benefit of humanity as a whole, as well as our planet.
I guess when you suck so bad at the Game, the only way to win is to cheat. Fuck these mouth breathers.
This is almost word-for-word an interaction I had with a coworker yesterday. Said she voted Orange this primary because “he’s the only one to fix this damn gender issue”, so I asked her what she thought of his policies on foreign affairs and the domestic wage gap.
I got a double-chinned shrug and an “idunno”. Lmfao our country is going to burn because a vast swath of people would rather see hundreds of thousands prosecuted for socially-engineered offenses instead of nurturing the human condition.
On a solemn note, our country’s governance has become a joke. A circus of clowns too busy honking horns and throwing pies at each other to notice the tent around them is ablaze. To everyone, please, do not take our country’s governance as a joke. Serious, irreversible consequences oft come from impotent or non-existent legislative power.
We stand at a precipice, so please vote. Vote. VOTE. VOTE.
As an unfortunate citizen of of that part of the Midwest, I can attest that alt-right propaganda is beginning to flourish with the upcoming election. Historically blue states within our region are no exception; many of the youth within the rural town I live in have unfortunately fallen trap to misinformation. I see more MAGA flags/hats, “fuck Biden” stickers on gas pumps, and hear more slavering bullshit spill from their mouths. There is still much more work to be done in repairing our democracy from fascist agendas.
PLEASE: Remember to vote for every election you can. It only takes one afternoon of one day to cast your ballot, but it means e v e r y t h I n g in how our country is delegated. It doesn’t matter what color tie they wear, but it is crucial they care for the health of our globe and people as much as they do their country.
This is our home. Let’s show it we care.
If I had to deal with the same smooth-brain at work every day while they insist to make my job more difficult for no other reason than they can, I’d lose a fuck or two along the line as well.
These people embody the worst of American voters.
Miss “Middle America” has a hard time coming to grips that correlation does not imply causation. Any public school teacher should know that and it scares me that people like her are in charge of our country’s youth and their ability to think.
Our business friend is just a straight-up smooth-brain. Debt rises during times of war as strategic services and trade routes get bungled, as well as the marked increase of weapon-related transactions. We saw it with Vietnam, Afghanistan, and now to a smaller degree in Ukraine and the Israeli-Palestinian war. Biden is dealing with (albeit poorly, imo) the ramifications of two wars he did not start, so it should be obvious businesses are not getting hand-outs like Trump offered (i.e. PPP loans).
Saving the best for last, Colonel Asshat shows remarkable sociopathic qualities. He only cares for himself, and fucking says as much.
The first two people could be educated on their poor political foundations and presumably become effective voters in a proper democratic system. The older gentleman on the other hand is a lost cause, and simply speaks volumes that socioeconomic issues in America will not change for the better until the older generation of politicians are removed from their positions of power.
You know this… I know this… Literates know this…
His cultists on the other hand? That shit was rolled up, fried, and gobbled down like an Independence Day barbecue. The entitled ape is actively trying to spearhead the start of an American Civil War II because he didn’t win.
You’re definitely right, however that is by design. “Education” systems (i.e. religion-based private learning) attenuate critical thinking by replacing scientific analysis with theological opinion. Yet in my eyes that’s not education, that’s pushing an agenda.
This is why education, thusly critical thinking, is so important in a digital and globalized world. These unfortunate people who lack the skills to understand these obvious lies for what they are become the ramifications of voting corruption into power, who then go on to limit school funding in favor of personal gain. It’s a vicious circle we are in, but I think if we keep voting for pro-education, pro-social-welfare politicians then the cycle can be broken. The most important thing to do is to never give up a steadfast defence against facism, bigotry, and corruption. Our very existence as a democracy could depend quite a bit on these next few rounds of voting.
This dude, in the same breath as claiming to be a dictator “on day one”, said his main priority is to drill, baby, drill. He, along with all of his voters, have openly opted to make the climate crisis worse. Simply put, republicans are Eco-terrorists. The world, not just the US, cannot afford to have Republicans in charge anymore.
A-fucking-men, I couldn’t have said this any better myself. It’s always been the ultra-rich causing problems for the Common Man, not the poor or public servants. The problem then, one that may be solvable by us, is figuring out how to shake-awake the brainwashed from their IV drip of late-stage Capitalism. More people need to congregate behind global wealth management for anything to truly be changed.
